Posted in Betsey Johnson, Dresses | Leave a Comment »

In this outfit post I decided to snap photos with a different backdrop other than my usual “outdoor sundeck” backdrop haha! I thought it’ll be fun to snap pics in a different space in my building. What a better spot to take pics other than the laundry room!?! I’m wearing a cute white draped mesh dress from Nasty Gal during their secret sale for only $13.00!!! AH-MAZING price…a dollah make me hollah honey boo boo child! Unfortunately the secret sale has ended and the dress is now $33.00. There are still plenty other fab dresses for under $30 in their sale section!

I’m also wearing a minnie mouse headband from the Disney store, eyeglasses are from Urban Outfitters, studded bracelet from Buffalo Exchange, and shoes by Jeffrey Campbell. I hope you have enjoyed this post as much as I had creating it! It’s now one of my favorites I hope you had an awesome weekend! xo

Don’t Be Unconscious…

April 17, 2012 by spikessequins

Last week was H&M’s release of their “Conscious Collection“. The sustainable collection consists of a Conscious Collection and an Exclusive Conscious Collection. The Exclusive Collection has red carpet ready pieces crafted from sustainable materials. Some of the pieces have already been worn by celebrities on the red carpet prior to the release! I had my eyes on this neon green dress (pictured above) from the Exclusive collection and the blush pink eyelet dress (I will do a post about the blush pink dress later this week) from the H&M Conscious Collection.

The neon green dress was modified and originally worn by Kristina Davis aka Charlotte

Did anyone else shop the collection?

Fashion Star Part 2

April 3, 2012 by spikessequins

In this last picture it got just a little too windy haha! I definitely gave whoever was looking a treat! Opps!

In this post I’m wearing my 2nd purchase from the television show Fashion Star! This dress is the winning dress by Sarah Parrott for H&M from episode 3! Again, this style sold out within minutes online after the show aired so I stopped into H&M the following day to check it out! I’ll admit I was a bit disappointed when I saw the color because on the show the colors for this dress were much brighter but I did like the mesh back and draping of the dress so I decided to give it a try! When I tried it on I was quite pleased. I can picture wearing it to a formal dressy occasion or wearing it casually on the beach! This dress is very versatile so I didn’t mind the color anymore The price wasn’t bad either. It sold for $29.95! In this look I paired the dress with hidden platform pumps and tassel earrings also an H&M find!
